Also, check system -> preferences -> screensaver
and from that GUI, click on Power Management, which will pop another GUI
In the second GUI, if the "put display to sleep when inactive for:" is 
set to NEVER
then your screen will not be turned off.
Also, beneath that is a check mark for
Dim display when idle. If it is checked,  AND screen saver is set to 
ACTIVATE after some time, then
the screen will be dimmed (not same as turned off).
